the monday update

thank you to everyone who responded so nicely and patiently to my early morning post yesterday. justin pointed out that i may have been a bit short with people who genuinely care, and for that i am sorry. i'm a little edgy. i'm trying not to be. but i am a little bit. i don't know what i would do without my core (or maybe "corps" would be more apt!) of fellow bloggers. you mean the world to me.

i need to go home and exfoliate so the dr doesn't mistake my sunless tanner streaks for bruises. i don't want him to look at my blotchy legs and ask justin to wait outside. i hated the time when the medical staff took me in and made justin wait because they had to give me the opportunity to tell them if i was being abused - i mean, it's good they do it - there are so many abused women that need a safe haven - but it was annoying when i was freaking out that something was wrong with hans and just wanted justin - who was freaking out, too - with me! i think they're just not used to the sort of husband that comes to every appointment so he can freak out on anyone who comes near his beloved wife with anything made of latex.

my dr did very kindly call me back personally and offer to work me in tomorrow, after his secretary told me he is way-overbooked all week and could probably only order some tests now and then would see me when i got back (two weeks from today) from vermont and quebec and ontario. this is why i am staying with my dr.

well, that, and the fact that he's slightly hot.
